O'MALLEY PAINTING and Decorating

They do not stand behind their work. I have been trying to get him for the last 6 months to come out and repair the cabinets that he had painted because the paint is peeling off. He won’t return my calls. I would not recommend him to anybody. It is just shoddy workmanship. I have left messages for him and I have spoken to him a couple of times and he has agreed to come over a weekend to work but he does not show up.

I didn't use him because he was way, way high. He was fine but when I got the estimate I almost dropped dead so I called him back and told him he was extremely high. Then he dropped it down considerably but by that time I wasn't interested in doing business with him. I got two other estimates and he was outlandishly high. He was very pleasant and prompt. He responsed right away and he was punctual. The only problem I had was that they were extremely high.

As with other work he's done for, me Joe really came through. The repair work he did on my walls is invisible! The re-texturing, as well, makes the house look like new. He was of immense assistance when it came to figuring out colors. His sister is a licensed interior designer and he is able to use her as a sounding board in giving great color consultation. His team is quite neat and clean and VERY efficient with their time. My house looks better than I thought it could. Warm and inviting and already receiving many compliments.

Having used Joe before I knew he and his crew would do a great job, and they did! Punctual, professional and detailed in their work. My cabinets look like they are brand new and REALLY have improved the overall look of my kitchen for a modest price.

Joe has a long history of treating and staining wood from his many years working out in Philadelphia before coming out to Los Angeles. The man KNOWS wood. He was able to hear that I wanted the wood to have as natural a look as possible and know that, given it was facing the sun all afternoon it would need something durable. He came up with the perfect treatment for the doors (explaining thoroughly what he was using and why) and both he and his cohort, Carlos, worked tirelessly to finish the job in two days and did an AMAZING job. The doors look good enough to eat off of! He also keeps a "maintenance list" for his clients to check back in with them after a few years to see if any further treatment is necessary. He also does all varieties of painting indoors and out. I'm having him treat my new Teak front doors as well. His prices are reasonable given the quality of the work he does.
